MERCEDES Lyrics in English by Becky G, Oscar Maydon
Mujeriego translates to "womanizer" or "playboy". It's a descriptive and engaging word that refers to a man who frequently engages in romantic or sexual relationships with many women.
In the song, Becky G sings, "Y yo que antes solía decir 'mujeriego me voy a morir'" (And I, who used to say 'I'm going to die a womanizer'). This line is particularly enticing because it shows a character's transformation, implying that someone who once embraced a carefree lifestyle is now considering settling down due to a new love, making it a pivotal and interesting word in the narrative.
This song is all about two people who are completely obsessed with each other. It's a fun, flirty duet where they trade lines about how much they want one another. Oscar Maydon kicks it off by talking about a girl who's so captivating he's ready to give up his old ways. He used to think, "mujeriego me voy a morir" [I'll die a womanizer], but now he's met someone who makes him forget all that. He's ready to give her anything she wants, from a ride in his Mercedes to a night at a five-star hotel with a bottle of Moët.
Becky G's verse flips the perspective, showing the feeling is mutual. She tells him she used to think love wasn't for her, singing, "lo del amor no era pa' mí" [that love stuff wasn't for me]. But seeing him changed everything. Both of them play with the idea of being a mix of sweet and wild. He says she's "una diabla, aunque sabe que tiene carita de ángel" [a devil, even though she knows she has the face of an angel], and she agrees, saying the exact same thing about herself. It's a perfect back-and-forth about pure, luxurious attraction.
